Gender Discrimination

Being unfairly treated in the workplace due to your gender is not only unfair, it is unlawful under state and federal laws such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act. Examples of gender discrimination include employers providing fewer opportunities to women because they believe men are better equipped to do the work, or preventing a man from taking leave to care for an ill child because the employer believes that is a woman’s job.

If you have been fired or unfairly treated due to your gender, you need the experienced trial lawyers at Rathod | Mohamedbhai LLC on your side.
